colinbrr, welcome to the forums, but please note 17

Your using the incorrect switches, you need a two way switch on both ends with the corect wiring between. Not sure why you have a double pole switch in the first place.
 
And if that rather curt reply wasn't enough - have a look in the 'reference 'section, and if you cant make it match up with what you have, post us a picture.
